This morning we went out for coffee (s'mores blend for Michelle, and chocolate macadamea blend for me). After that I did my exercise. Today was kind of slow, but it was intentional this time. I settled on a fast easy pace instead of a pushing pace. I did, however, get in an argument with a bush. One of the bushes on the route seems to have suddenly reached that point where it can't hold itself up and is drooping over the sidewalk. It's a narrow spot too, so I don't have much space to go around, so I lowered my head and plowed through. (I use my hat as a helmet to protect me from brush.) This thing pulled my hat off and scratched my fingers when I caught my hat. It also caught at my pack, which I expected, but I plowed through. When I got home, I pulled two 6mm thorns out of my pack. I think it was a draw. Rematch tomorrow!

We cleaned up, then went out to do some shopping. We went to Target (I wanted to get some socks and another 40lb weight set, but they didn't have the weight set I wanted), Bed Bath And Beyond (for a housewarming gift), Michaels (Michelle wanted materials for a project), and finally went to the Houston Live Stock Show And Rodeo. We had food and checked out the animals. They had hatching chicks which was neat to watch. Then I dropped Michelle off at work (she's on call from five to eleven) and came home to do my own work. She was done early, so I picked her up at ten and we went to bed.
